Xiang Shu was carried up by the bull demon and walked upwards. After passing through several thick doors, he finally reached the ground.
The dazzling white light came, and Xiang Shen squinted his eyes slightly, only to see clearly the dense white light beads embedded at the top of the nest, illuminating a huge space as bright as day.
Xiang Shen remained calm and looked around.
This nest is not generally large. As far as the eye can see, it is full of twisting giant tunnels. In just a short moment, several huge rats crawled through the tunnels nearby, squeaking and seeming to be communicating. .
In addition to rat demons, there are also many partially transformed demon clans such as bull demons in the lair. Their bodies are diverse and include everything.
Among the bull demons alone, they met several snake demons and a spider demon on the way. The eyes of the bull demon were full of contempt and gloating.
Another centipede demon twisted its long body up and asked directly: "Niu Mang, I heard that Master Di Miao was reprimanded by the king this morning? Is it true?"
A trace of anger flashed in Niu Yao's eyes, but he did not break out. He carried Xiang Shu and left quickly.
Not long after, the bull demon came to the door of a rather exquisitely decorated arched lair. Before he could report, a black mist suddenly poured out of the door. A hand stretched out from the black mist and pulled the bull demon towards it. They caught him together.
"I asked you to pick out some blood food. How long did it take you to go there?"
A cold voice rang in his ears, and the bull demon looked frightened. When he arrived at the lair, he knelt down without saying a word.
"Master, my subordinate is delaying his time because he has something important to do."
After saying this, the bull demon quickly pushed the panicked Xiang Shen forward, "Master, please take a look."
The black fog dissipated, and a gloomy-looking young man in yellow robe walked out of it. This demon was the "Di Miao" the jailer was talking about.
He looked Xiang Shen up and down, the gloom in his eyes instantly disappeared, and his face showed surprise: "Pure race?"
"Exactly! This woman is the seriously injured person that your master picked up from outside nine days ago. Her injuries have improved and she just woke up today."
"It turns out it's you...Okay, very good!"
Di Miao laughed loudly, grabbed Xiang Yu's arm with one hand, and pulled him to him.
The bull demon immediately retreated knowingly.
"Not only is she a pure-blooded human, she's also so beautiful."
Di Miao looked at Xiang Shu unscrupulously.
He is new in charge of the slave prison, and his predecessor left him a mess. Not to mention the poor quality of the slaves, there is not even a pure human race in the slave prison.
Today, his father was entertaining an honored guest and ordered him to send two pure-blooded humans to serve him. He sent two foxes and half-demon with their tails docked, but the distinguished guest found out and he was beaten to pieces by his father. .
If this girl could wake up a moment earlier, why would he be punished by his father in front of everyone?
Now that he has been punished, sending a pure-blooded human over will only make his father misunderstand that he is hiding something...
Di Miao licked his lips, his eyes ready to move.
He has not tasted the taste of a pure-blooded human race.
He restrained his appetite, forced his eyes away from Xiang Yu's throat, and looked down.
Pure-blooded human slaves are a symbol of status, and gold is very valuable.
The performance of selling her in exchange for spiritual stones was enough to put him first among his father's many heirs. How could he be willing to kill her?
However, if you take a bite of the thigh and taste it, it won't kill this little thing...
He made up his mind, exposed his mouth full of sharp fangs, and was about to bite, when he suddenly heard a whisper of life ringing in his ears.
"Lord Di Miao."
This sound was extremely soft, and Di Miao's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously raised her head, only to be met with a pair of cold and quiet eyes.
There seemed to be a whirlpool in the pupils, and Di Miao just glanced at it and had the illusion that his mind was about to be sucked into it.
not good!
Di Miao's expression changed drastically, and he immediately wanted to avert his gaze, but his eyes refused to obey his orders, as if they were glued to Xiang Shu's line of sight, unable to move away.
He tried to pull away, but found that his body was trapped by a layer of golden runes at some point, unable to move, and he was even more panicked.
"Come here!"
"Someone come quickly!"
He shouted several times, but there was no response from outside. It seemed that he was isolated from the outside world.
All escape routes were blocked.
Di Miao was desperate, and a gap suddenly appeared in his heart, and the dim light took advantage of it.
Soon, the fear in Di Miao's eyes faded away like a tide, and turned into a look of respect and enthusiasm.
He quickly released his grip on Xiang Shen's throat and simply knelt down.
"Owner!"
Hearing this, Xiang Shu released the restraint that sealed Di Miao's body. His already pale face turned even paler, and he stumbled back two steps unsteadily until he stopped at the table.
She put her hand to her lips and coughed out some blood, but her eyes were as calm as water.
He had just recovered from his injury and came over to meet Di Miao, which was really reluctant.
But the opportunity is rare, and even if it's a bit of a risk, it's worth it.
After regaining some strength, Xiang Shu sat on the ground.
When Di Miao saw it, he hurriedly crawled forward on his knees and came to Xiang Shu. His face was full of guilt: "This subordinate offends his master and deserves death! He deserves death!"
Xiang Shu looked at Di Miao who was constantly blaming himself in front of him, but there was no joy in his eyes, instead there was a hint of fear.
The object of this fear is of course not Di Miao, but witchcraft.
The technique she used today was not the soul-stirring witchcraft she used to collect intelligence in the past, but a more advanced soul-controlling witchcraft.
The soul-stirring witchcraft can only temporarily confuse the mind and make the subject obey the instructions.
However, soul control witchcraft can fundamentally change the other party's mind from the soul, making it regard the caster as the real master, but it will not affect its original character.
Although the conditions for performing this method are extremely harsh, it requires suppressing the spirit with a soul that far exceeds that of the opponent, and then creating panic to create a gap in the opponent's mind before he can take advantage of it. If this rat demon hadn't just condensed the demon elixir, she wouldn't have dared to use it easily due to her intelligence.
But seeing the enemy in front of her, he instantly became a loyal servant who was willing to do everything for her. Xiang Sheng truly felt the weirdness and horror of witchcraft.
According to Duan Chengtong, he accidentally obtained this witchcraft secret book from a ruins.
The Wu Clan has been extinct for a long time, and until now, there are only a few passages in ancient books to prove its existence. With so many weird spells, this race should be quite powerful, so how did it perish?
Some distracting thoughts passed through his mind, but they were quickly suppressed by Xiang Shu. Now was not the time to think about these things.
Thinking of this, she said in a deep voice: "I heard that this is the territory of the Rat King. How much do you know about the Demon King?"
When Di Miao heard this, he immediately became energetic and said, "Master, you have asked the right person. I am the heir of the Mouse Prince, and I am very familiar with my father's affairs."
Xiang Shen's eyes narrowed for a moment, "Are you actually the heir of the Rat Prince?"
"Master, our demon race is different from your human race."
Di Miao smiled bitterly: "Especially us rat demons reproduce at an astonishingly fast rate.
Most of the rat demons in this lair are from my father. I am just an ordinary one among them and am not taken seriously. Otherwise, I would not be managing a mere slave prison.
Therefore, Master, you can rest assured that the methods you use will never be noticed by your father. "
Xiang Shen nodded slightly, but a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
This Di Miao was clearly awake and still remembered everything that had happened before, but he completely abandoned his position and stood completely on her side.
Soul control witchcraft is really powerful.
She then asked: "Do you know how powerful your father is?"
Di Miao frowned and said: "More than a hundred years ago, my father had a battle with the two kings and retreated in defeat. At that time, he was in the late stage of condensation, and he has never made a move since. What is his cultivation level now? I There’s no way of knowing.”
The late stage of soul condensation, in human terms, is the late stage of spiritual transformation.
Xiang Shen's eyes flashed, "Has he been injured?"
Di Miao recalled for a moment, nodded and said: "There are indeed some injuries, but they are not serious. They will be cured in a few years of seclusion."
After finding out the strength of the Rat King, Xiang Shu changed the subject and said, "Who are the two kings you are talking about?"
"Master, you don't even know about the two kings? Could it be that they came from the outside world?"
Di Miao looked surprised, but under the influence of the soul-controlling magic, he didn't feel it was inappropriate at all. Instead, he immediately introduced the situation of the Demon Valley to Xiang Shu.
After listening to this, Xiang Shu finally had a general understanding of the division of forces in the Demonic Split Valley.
The demon clan gathered in the Fissure Demon Valley, and the weak relied on the strong, gradually forming three major forces.
They are the Ten Thousand Poison Nests of the Rat King, Qingqiu Mountain of the Sky Fox King, and the Twin Kings' City of the Twin Kings.
Among them, the Twin King City is the most powerful. Only because there are two late-stage condensed demon kings sitting there, the Rat King and the Sky Fox King can join forces to fight against them.
However, the Sky Fox King and the Mouse King are natural enemies, and their relationship is extremely bad. Naturally, they will not join forces to fight against the enemy. They can only be second or third, allowing the Twin King City to occupy the best position.
In the Demon Valley, among the three demon king forces, which one will cooperate with the senior brother?
"The location of Wandieping is right at the junction of the three demon kings' forces."
Di Miao thoughtfully took out an animal skin map and circled the location of Wandieping.
"This place is full of fish and dragons. If the master wants to go, I can find a way to go under the banner of my father, which can avoid a lot of trouble."
Xiang Shu stared at the map, noncommittal.
She had figured out the time from Di Miao's mouth. Nine days had passed since she was picked up by Di Miao after leaving the Tide Eye.
There are still twenty-one days before the appointment with Fourth Senior Sister, which is plenty of time. She has not yet figured out whether this rat king is the partner of her senior brother, so she is in no hurry to leave.
"Dimiao, have you ever seen your father receive human monks?"
Xiang Shen suddenly asked. She didn't know whether the cooperation between the senior brother and the Demon King was secret or open, but it was always right to ask.
"Human monk?"
Di Miao was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and blurted out: "Master, what a coincidence. My father is currently receiving human monks!"
"Um?"
Xiang Shen's eyes flashed, "Have you seen that human monk?"
"I've seen it before."
Di Miao looked demure: "But the other person's cultivation level is too advanced. Every time he comes here, he tries to cover it up. I don't remember that person's appearance. I only know that my father calls him a distinguished guest. Every time I receive him, my father's posture is extremely low." .”
Distinguished guest, will you be the senior brother?
Xiang Shen's heart moved slightly, but he did not rush to verify it, but continued to ask: "Besides these, are there other characteristics?"
